Tasting Notes

Goedhuis, May 2018
Tasted blind, Burgfest May 2018: A generous nose of waxy lemon peel on the nose leads to a palate of tightly coiled citrus fruit. This wine has impressive and persistent length.

Neal Martin, December 2016,
Score: 90-92The 2015 Puligny-Montrachet 1er Cru Champ Canet showed a little more vintage character than the Folatières, hints of passion fruit and caramelized pear tucked in behind the citrus veneer. The palate is fresh and vibrant on the entry with a keen line of acidity, though the finish remains quite strict and maybe does not quite possess the mineral expression of the Folatières at the moment. Maybe that will change once in bottle? Still, there is potential here and the spiciness on the aftertaste is satisfying. Drink Date 2018 - 2029

Domaine Etienne Sauzet

Etienne Sauzet is one of the great estates of Puligny Montrachet, taking its name from current incumbent Emilie Riffault's great grandfather who founded this domaine in the early 1900s. It boasts 15 hecatres of vineyards, comprising four white grands crus in Puligny and Chassagne and nine premiers crus. Today, under Emilie and husband Benoit's direction, their owned vineyards are fully biodynamic and they are one of the flag bearers for the appellation of Puligny.
Region
Puligny Montrachet
Puligny Montrachet is known as the most delicate of the white wine appellations south of Beaune.Its wines tend to be linear and mineral offering delicate floral and orchard fruit aromatics. Its village and premier cru vineyard area total slightly over 200 hectares but almost half of them are premier cru making them one of the highest proportions of quality vineyards in the Côte de Beaune. Several grand cru vineyards are present, the most notable being Le Montrachet and Bâtard Montrachetwhich it shares with neighbouring Chassagne, but it does have the extraordinary Chevalier Montrachet and the tiny Bienvenues Bâtard Montrachet all to itself. There are a handful of red wines grown, but they tend to be quite light and need to be drunk in their youth.
